PROF. P. v. PENNYBAoKER, chosen
president of the State Teachers Asso-
citation, would, in political parlance,
be called kid. He is quite young
man, being barely 80 years of age, yet
he is one of the leading educators OF
the State and is held in high esteem by
his co-laborers, az is evidenced by his
election to the presidency. He and his
estimable wife are the pets of the good
people of Tylor where they have
lived and had charge of the public
schools for several sessions.

The Prohibition Mass Meeting at
Fort Worth yesterday was no DOUBT
the largest and most enthusiastic rally
of any kind which has ever been hello
in Texas. There were no doubt fully
10000 prohibitionsts there from every
part of the State, and, including the
attendance from Fort Worth, the null
titude on the grounds can be safely es-
timated at 1900 or 10000. The seats
and standing room occupied by peo-
pie about the stands covered five or
six acres and the woods were full oil
'em. The barbecue was immense and
perfect, an artesian well bored for the
occasion furnished plenty of water.

THE Cleburne Chronicle publishes
a very sensible and timely editorial on

and charactcrizes the recent Dallas
Confederate Home GIFT Concert as
one of the most open and fraudulent

something for noting. The Chroni-

And when she stoops to lift from want and sin
The brighter shines her royalty therein.
che walks erect through dangers manifold,
While many sink and fail on either hand;
che breads not Summers heat nor Winters cold
For both are subject to the Kings command;
She need not be afraid Of anything,
Because she is the daughter ola King
Zen when the angel comes that men call Death
And name with terror, it appals not her;
She turns to welcome him with quickened breath
Thinking it is the Royal messenger;
Her heart rejoices that her Father calls
Her back to dwell within His palace walls.
For though the land she dWells in is most fair,
Set round with streams, a picture in its frame,
Yet often in her heart deep longings are
For that Imperial Palace whence she came
Not perfect quite seems any earthly thing,
Because she is the daughter of King.

"Ruddygore," Gilbert and sullivan's
new opera, had its first American repre-
sentation at the Fifth Avenue Theater in
New York, and scored a suces d'estmne.
Of course, it would be impossible for so
clever a wit as W. S. Gilbert, and so
brilliant composer as Sir Arthur Sulll-
van to present to the public anything de-
void of merit, but there are indications in
"Ruddygore" that they are, perhaps,
producing too rapidly. The wit Of the
dialogue is not so simple, and the music
is based upon lines that are somewhat
worn. There is none of the tuneful fresh
ness of "Pinafore" or the flowing melody
Of "Patience. Then again the subject
is grusome and the humor is grim rather
than amusing. But it must be remem-
bered that none of Gilbert and Sullivan's
operas have proved entirely satisfactory
at first hearing The quaint conceits
of the author and the music of the COM
poser grow uponyou. Even 'Pinafore"
was not entirely successful upon its first
representation, and yet it afterwards be-
came one of the most popular compost
tons of modern times. 1t may be that
the same good fortune awaits "Ruddy-
gore.

FROM Miss HARRIsoN's fine group

the Grecian Women" we give our read

men and women Of this day realize? or
will they ever realized that companion

unity, and thought for thought. Miss
Harrison says:
"a man thinks, and quite rightly, Of
the appearance woman will present at
the ''head of the table" Let a. woman
also, Nausicaa-llke, give thought to
the appearancethis man will present atthe
foot of hers, where she will have to con-
template him possibly for the rest Of her
lifetime. Only very seldom nowadays
does the world see the ideal Homerlc
marriage. Odysseus had no thoughts
that Nausicaa might not share. Allow
ing for the differrce in muscle, their
training was the same, their intellectual
atmosphere precisely identical, both
could sing and dance, both listened to the
minstrel'S lays F.; but how is it now in the
formal marriage of cultivated society? |

very clever, hard. workieg man often
marries pretty woman without an idea

his days. There are not wanting signs
that we shall soon have the reverse pic
ture. There is no doubt that clever Wo-
men who work at high mental pitch
find the handsome young do-nothing
athlete, attractive and refreshing; this is
marriage almost by antipathies, the at
traction of the positive and negative.
Among the unrehecting a certain per-
centage of this sort of marriage will

well-matched intellectual couple. Their
minds are. as one, so far as they go.
They honestly love, reverence and sym
pathize with each other; they 60 out to
dinner, and the modern Nausicaa talks
as we'll and brilliantly as the modern
OdysseuS her comments and criticism
when they come home are just as well
worth hearing she reads the last novel
from the library, and her opinion is just
as pointed and noteworthy. But there
always comes space beyond, path
down which Odysseus goes where Nau-
sicaa cannot follow. He has the training
of school and college, his mind is ground
to a sharper edge, he argues with nicer
logic, his very phraseology is charged
with associations foreign to her language,
and so, when he wants to discuss the last
issue of his work, when he seeks to
utter the last fine flower of his thought, the
point he has made forhimsel- advance

the best moments, the finest sensations
life has to give, are for the friends
sharing. And the odd thing is that the
wife is not jealous of this man friend who
takes what should De hers. She says,
ooh, Odysseus hates learned women;
he wouldn't like me to be blue and so
she never knows that she has lost the
crown of marriage thought welded to

A NUMBER of weddings Of representa-
tive American ladies have occurred in
the month that has lately passed.
Among them is the gifted young writer
and journalist, Miss Maud Howe, whose
"San Rosario Mine" and whose letters
toyarious journals were so widely read
during the New Orleans Exposition.
Miss Howe has linked her fate with that
Of an English artist whom she met two
seasons ago. Her wedding was unique,
and beautiful lilies were everywhere
amid the pleasant rooms Of Mrs. Howe's
residence, while the music Of stringed
instruments pulsed low and soft minor
tones, the bride and groom were seen ap-
preaching through suite of rooms. AS
they drew near the minister, transpar-
emit japanese Portsere curtain was moved
aside. and they entered within the floral
enWreathed circle, where, under cano-
Ply OF lilies, the ceremony of marriage
was commenced. While thinking OF
Miss Howe as a bride, we recall a APP
aneSe curtain that was for sale at the
Worlds Exposition in New Orleans, a
curtain of which a lady friend spoke with
enraptured terms. It was so beautiful,
She said, it was like a bridal wreath,
crystal beads strung upon silken thread,
While Colored beads formed in the center,
aplcture Of water, pale blue and glisten-
ing 1t was drape, and still you could
see through and beyond the curtain,
An, those wonderful Japanese !" the
lady continued, "You touched, and the
NeXlble curtain moved aside and became
@gltterlng crystal Portiere drape." So
from the glittering drape Of foreign
nandlWork we take our leave Of Miss
Maud Howe, and welcome none the less
brilliant place amid writer's and rep

We concur with our contemporary,
the Silver State. who in reply to some
OF the visionary journals of the West
ern part of the State, that for weeks
have been advocating the establish
ment of a Bureau of immigration by
the present Legislature, that it is use
less to do So in the present condition
of the State. Our contem porary very
truthfully says:
An idea seems to prevail in the west
ern part of the State, that steps should
be taken by the Legislature 10 invite
immigration to the State, but the adj
vocates of the measure do not appear
to have given the subject serious
thought. The land laws of Nevada
are the most liberal of any State IN
the Union, but the great trouble Is.
there are no lands in the State, subject
to entry at the State or United States
Land Offices. which can be cultivated
without water. Therefore it is not
advisable to invite immigration until
some method is devised for irrigating
those lands, as family with few
hundred dollars cannot make living
on any section Of unsold land within
fifty miles Of the railroad from the
Truckee river to the Utah line. Mem
beers of the Legislature from the CEN
trail and eastern part of the State I'M
derstand the situation much better
than those from Ormsby and Storey
counties, and doubtless will snlighten
the latter when the subject is brought
before the Legislature.
